I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

Trump Told a Woman, ‘Quiet, Piggy,’ When She Asked Him About Epstein
The comment continues the president’s long-standing pattern of denigrating female journalists.

My neighbors just up the street from us own A-squared pizza in Charlottesville, and their youngest was recently diagnosed with leukemia.
Their family is really nice, and this is a huge bummer right before the holidays. A GoFundMe has been set up for the family to help with everything.

She’s a legend, but GOOD LORD that generation needs to pass the baton.
THE VAULT: Maxine Waters isn’t budging.
At 87, the longtime Financial Services Democrat says she plans to stay in the top spot “for a lot more time” — and she’s not thrilled about being asked otherwise.
More from her exchange with our @brendanpedersen.bsky.social:

For this week’s #TerrierTuesday it’s a #HighVis theme. Did you know that Westies were bred to be high vis?? In the 19th Century, a Scottish Laird lost his beloved Cairn Terrier in a shooting accident so created a breed with a bright white coat to avoid it ever happening again.
